I give it a two-star for the completely chaotic and ADD-structured interface. Although the app will generate the SKU's and barcodes in bulk, it's all over the place. And the pricing packages are also all over the place and you don't feel clear at what exactly it provides. I paid for the advanced options, but when I tried to generate the SKU's I was still required to pay monthly. It's also missing other important information. For example, it gives no clarification or examples what the officially accepted and required format is for the different SKU options (Code-128, EAN-13 encoding, Google, Amazon, etc). You need the right structure to not generate a Google ad listing ban. And, like someone else pointed out, it does overwrite your own tailored numbering once it generates SKU's.

Developer reply ·

Thanks for taking the time to share your thoughts. I’m really sorry to hear the app felt overwhelming — it’s built to offer a lot of flexibility, but we know that can sometimes make the interface feel like a lot at first. The overwrite behavior for existing SKUs is optional and can be turned off in the app settings — the app does warn before changes are made. If you're open to giving it another shot, we'd be happy to walk you through everything or improve based on any suggestions you have. Please feel free to contact us directly — we’d love to help.

I have been a SKU Gen customer for a few years, and I can confidently say their app is excellent, and their customer service is truly exceptional. It is incredibly refreshing to find a company that genuinely values its customers beyond the sale. Recently, I needed a specific feature added to streamline my SKU process, and the team not only obliged but also provided immediate help. Big thanks to the SKU Gen Team for supporting us!

We needed a way to print labels based on a Stocky-generated CSV based on ordered quantity, instead of received. SkuGen promptly replied to my emails and after a few clarifications, they offered to add this feature. Within three days it was ready and tested. It worked! Excellent customer service.

It will *override* your existing SKUs with *random starting number* even if you 1. selected only generate for items without SKU and 2. choose a starting number yourself. A nightmare to for any store owner.

Developer reply ·

Thank you for your feedback. Our app does not generate SKUs randomly—every SKU follows the format and starting number chosen by the user. Additionally, the option to generate SKUs only for items without one works as expected. If you experienced anything different, we’d love to help clarify—please reach out to our support team so we can assist you!

Bogden has been super helpful in answering all of my questions. He has worded the communication in a way that makes setup a breeze! In his communications he provided screenshots and itemized instructions to make the process easy to digest. I pay for the Premium account because I am utilizing the advanced SKU automation features. It also has a built in label template and label printer so I was able to consolidate my apps into one SKU & Print app. It is well worth the price. I highly recommend this app.

Our experience with SKUGEN was absolutely horrendous. The so-called “customer service” from Bogdan was nothing short of dismissive and condescending. He repeatedly demanded screenshots of the same billing information—data they could clearly access themselves. Despite being on their “free” plan, we were charged $1.99 monthly, which is outrageous. Instead of addressing the issue, they bumped us into their “automatic SKU generation” plan without our consent—something Shopify offers for free, by the way. We had unknowingly paid for this app for two years, and when we questioned their shady practices, they refused to refund us all of the months that we were charged for a free plan. It took escalating the issue to Shopify and other governing bodies to even begin addressing the problem. As if that wasn’t bad enough, the app itself is clunky, confusing, and offers the bare minimum in functionality. Their billing is a complete mess, which seems intentional to trap users. There are far better apps out there that provide similar services without this level of frustration and unethical behavior. Save yourself the headache—SKUGEN is not worth your time or money. RESPONSE TO SKUGEN'S COMMENT: It’s deeply frustrating to see SKUGEN continuing to deflect accountability and dismiss valid concerns. For clarity: I was refunded for 3 months, but I was charged for over a year on what was supposed to be a free plan. Despite sending all the requested information multiple times, the response I received has been nothing but gaslighting and attempts to shift blame. You claim that plan changes require explicit user consent, yet I was charged for a downgrade I didn’t approve and then all the sudden moved to a paid tier without any transparency or notification. Unlike other apps on Shopify that clearly communicate pricing changes well in advance, SKUGEN failed to provide any such notice. The lack of transparency and unwillingness to take responsibility speaks volumes about the company’s practices. Let me reiterate: this isn’t about the money—it’s about honesty and integrity. Users deserve to know what they’re paying for and to have issues resolved without being misled or stonewalled. Shopify is now investigating the situation, and I encourage others who have had similar experiences to do the same. Additionally, the app itself leaves much to be desired. It’s unintuitive, confusing, and offers subpar functionality compared to its competitors. Customer service is just as lacking, with limited availability and dismissive responses, especially for users in time zones like PST (which is only around midnight). Other apps in the Shopify ecosystem provide better features, superior support, and transparency in billing practices—SKUGEN is simply not worth your time or energy. If you value straightforward tools and ethical customer service, I urge you to look elsewhere. There are far better options available that won’t leave you feeling cheated or ignored.

Developer reply ·

We’re really sorry to hear about your negative experience with our app, and we truly appreciate the opportunity to address your concerns. First, we would like to clarify an important point regarding your billing concerns. An app cannot change or increase your subscription plan on Shopify—this can only be done by the store owner or admin. Any charges related to our app would have required your explicit approval, as Shopify does not allow automatic plan changes without the user’s consent. We believe there may have been a misunderstanding about how Shopify handles app subscriptions, and we'd be happy to help clarify any confusion. Regarding the issue with our customer support, we sincerely apologize if you felt that our team was dismissive or unhelpful. Our team, including Bogdan, always strives to assist our customers to the best of our ability. We have repeatedly requested additional information from you in order to better understand and resolve the issue, but we did not receive the specific details needed to investigate further. We are always happy to look into issues as long as we have the necessary information. We also want to address your concern about the SKU generation plan. We do not make changes to any user’s plan or features without their consent, and we would be happy to provide more details on how our app works if there was any confusion in that regard.

This app is one of the most important apps we are using. The way we operate would not work without this app. We use it for auto generating SKU's (we have more than 25.000 SKU's) and we use it for printing labels on product that are missing labels. The app is VERY stable and we have used in many years. The support is excellent as well. We have only needed support a few times and they have solved it extremely fast! 5 of 5 stars without a doubt!

Ok, so I bought an advanced monthly plan and custom codes which was one time payment. Tried it out and was working. The next day I try to do custom codes, it shows that it's a completely different plan and I don't have access to it. Did you change the plan? This is absurd. I either want a full refund or access that I paid for initially.

Developer reply ·

Thank you for reaching out to us, and we appreciate your feedback. We're sorry to hear about the confusion regarding your subscription and custom codes. After reviewing your account, it appears that the initial purchase you made did not include access to custom codes.

This app generates SKUs for products and variants that we create. A lot of our products are print on demand and they come with their own SKU's. Obviously, you do not want to change the SKUs assigned by a print shop. This app has never changed any of our existing SKUs. It just creates SKUs for the products that don't have one and only if we want it to. Using the same SKUs on Shopify, Etsy, eBay, etc is what makes it possible to use Shopify as the only place we have to process orders. I highly recommend this app if you need to create SKUs for your products.

Very handy app to get unique SKUs added for all my new products.

Either way, it's super handy if you are trying to use Shopify as your source data for other stores.

Button to generate SKUs is grey out. Updated to the £1.99 monthly plan and it still seems greyed out. Some clarification on why this is would be helpful.

Developer reply ·

Thank you for your review. The Generate button is greyed out if the options you selected are not part of your current plan. The $1.99 plan is for Automatic generation, but it does not include all generation options which are part of the "Advanced options" (one-time fee)

I used to not have to worry about this app. They did an update at some point that now, half the time, the auto generate doesn't work and I end up have to manually go back and edit sku numbers. it really stinks as I am listing products manually across multiple sales channels and so having the correct sku is super important I'm grandfathered in under the "Price Increase" they had and thinking this may be part of the problem - i.e. a bug of some sort as we're not paying their full premium etc. One would certainly hope that if you are going to pay for the auto generate, it would be reliable. At this point, I am having to go back in and verify the sku was generated and applied. When not, I have to go back and manually correct the SKU in the product and other sales channels. At this point, I most certainly could not recommend this to you for a no hassle auto generate and apply sku solution. It's workable if you don't mind the possibility that you need to go behind the app and correct it.

Developer reply ·

Thank you for your review. The auto-generate functionality is working, but there is one possible scenario when you could overwrite the SKU generated by the app. This can happen when you create the new product manually. It usually takes few seconds for the app to get the message from Shopify that a new product was created and to save the newly generated SKU. If you do not refresh the page, to load the SKU generated by the app, and save the product again (with the SKU field empty) you will overwrite it. Hope this helps.

There is no method to create a sku for a single product. Looks nice if you want to generate skus in bulk though.

Developer reply ·

Thank you for your review. Actually, you can create a SKU for a single product if you send it to the app from the product editing page. Please go to the More actions menu, then select 'Generate SKU'. This will send the product to the app and you'll be able to generate the SKU. I hope you'll reconsider the review.

This is a great app – especially for those who want to generate easy to understand SKU code for the product with options in Japanese. For an example, if a product has a color option "ピンク" (meaning pink in English), you can generate SKU code like P-PINK-0001. The support is extremely quick and efficient. I am very happy to recommend this app!
